p=2l+2w
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by l+w.
2l+2w=p
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2l=p-2w
Subtract 2w from both sides.
\frac{2l}{2}=\frac{p-2w}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
l=\frac{p-2w}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
l=\frac{p}{2}-w
Divide p-2w by 2.
p=2l+2w
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by l+w.
